I'm probably one of the few people who laments the loss of dedicated mp3 players. Especially the really oddball and unique designs that sony was putting out at the peak popularity of the devices.
@@sjm4306 Stop acting like people don't use MP3 only devices. The popularity of MP3 players is still extremely high. There are a lot of manufacturers that are coming out with a new MP3 player every year. Sony devices are overrated and over priced. They do not want to lower their profit margin so they sell overpriced MP3 players that most people refuse to buy.
You can believe what you want but the numbers are stacked against what you are stating. I say this as someone who loves dedicated mp3 players, the vast majority of people my age just stream music on smartphones nowadays. I wish dedicated mp3 players would make a comeback but ignoring the trends wont make that happen.
hey man, just wanted to thank you for this review again and your replies to my various comments - I was pretty sleep-deprived that week tbh 😅 I bought this mp3 player a few months ago now and have been slowly adding music to it, seems great so far. Cheers!
These reviews are good but one really needs a review that includes how it works later on down the road. See if it still works in a couple months or a year. Also testing the boundaries of its capability.
Great review. I really enjoy using this player running VLC and Musiclot. I also didn't mind not having Google services as I have other devices for that. Really, my main reason for getting this was because I wanted a device just for playing my flac/alac/ape files through a Bluetooth reciever, which it does wonderfully.
Nicely done. Very thorough. I've taken this for a spin and was also able to load different launchers on it which solved a lot of customization issues with this. Evidently PECSU will soon be releasing an updated model called the "G5" (PECSU indicated the release date will be late October/early November). The G5 model will incorporate Google Play into it's app package which I assume means they will pay for it to be Google Play licensed. My understanding is that the hardware will remain unchanged though PECSU did indicate the edges will be more rounded. Like you I prefer to use this as a Mp3 Player and really wish PECSU would have reduced the size to a 4" display and maybe made it a bit thinner and lighter. Portability for a Mp3 Player is key. Everyone in their mother has a phone which, more than likely runs laps around this player in terms of screen quality and hardware. There is no real reason to keep this player's screen 5" with a sub-HD screen resolution and then try to convince individuals to watch videos with it. My favorite Mp3 Player form factor is in the TIMMKOO Q5. It has a 4" screen with a plastic back making it significantly more more thin and light (and probably more durable to boot) compared to the PECSU P5S. Unfortunately the TIMMKOO Q5's hardware and screen is sub-par compared to this model. If PECSU would concentrate on making the best 4" Android type MP3 Player which emphasizes portability rather than pushing out this Frankensteinian MP3-Video hybrid Player and then try to hit a price point of $50 - $65 I'd think they'd have a hit. As PECSU gets closer to the $100 price range they also move closer to the pricepoint of true DAC Players which they definitely can't compete with. Like you I don't think this MP3 Player is worth $80. I'm thinking when the Q5 is released it will probably be priced in the $80-$90 range which makes it even more undesirable from a price standpoint. I guess we'll see.
It's a shame that someone like Retroid doesn't offer an Android device that's basically their handheld minus control buttons and correspondingly smaller. The RP2+ costs just $20 more and is better in almost every way.
That'd certainly be interesting but I have a feeling retroid wouldn't wanna risk competing with all the other low end android devices, they are making a comfortable profit on low/midrange android gaming devices with physical controls already.
Thanks for thevreview. Mine is arriving tomorrow. Might put a Fiio Q15 DAC between it and my headphones, which are power hungry. $80 DAP & $400 DAC. Maybe I should have just bought a $500 DAP. 😊
Hello everyone, I just bought PECSU P5s but I want to know which is the Mac Adrees since every time it turns off it changes the mac and asks me to reconnect to the internet and I can't find system information
I grabbed this a few weeks ago and was not really impressed but the more I used it the more I became to like it. I primarily just use it for my Tidal and Spotify accounts, put in a 256gb card and have plenty of room to download a lot of music. The only 2 issues I really have are: 1 there is no real power being put out on the 3.5 headphone jacks, the sound I find to be very weak, I need to max the volume even on easy to drive IEM's. 2 is I can not find an decent EQ to try to help with boosting the sound a bit. I did find that I was able to download my headphone app and that really helps and the Bluetooth sound much better than the 3.5 output. How are you finding these same issues?
Do you know what the card is formatted to (fat32, ext, ntfs)? It's possible you may need to reformat in the android settings menu for it to be recognized in the file browser/apps. If that's not the problem then I'm leaning towards thinking the device itself may be defective.
@@sjm4306 thank you for that piece of info,and this might sound dumb but im not tech savy...so are you say put the sd card in my device and reformat it?if so how do i do that ?or do i put in a pc and do that?and how do you do that in a pc?secondly how would i know what the card is formatted too..its a 32 gb kootion...also my buddy got one and it didnt read in his either nor did his sd card read...
Always reformat using the device. It's in settings, look for the option to view storage, then select the sd card and click format (may be under options, the three dots in the upper right corner, cant exactly remember).
I'm hoping someone might know the answer, I use Bluetooth speakers when doing therapy, I use a Mega Boom speaker or Bose Bluetooth speakers... I'm trying to get away from using a phone so there is no interruption of the songs. What player could I use that will let me run the Mega Boom app and or the Bose app? Can I see my play-list on the player so I can switch which song plays next if need be? TIA!!!
Hello, I have this model mp3 player I'm wondering since I have a wobbly USB type c port that prevents it from charging a certain way, would I be able to get this repaired at repair shop?
Hey there! I have another question: I can't find anywhere in the UK to buy the MP3 player from, so if I buy it, it will be from the US. Do you know if I'll need a step down converter or anything? (Or of any other not-super-expensive MP3 player that can take a 1TB micro SD card?) Thanks again for your time :)
It'll charge off of any 5V USB C wall plug. I charge mine off the adapter I use to charge my phone. It'll also happily charge when plugging into a computer while transferring music over usb.
Believe it or not, it's no better here in the USA for buying this type of tech. locally. Most of the big chain electronics stores have only the cheapest junky mp3 players, if that, or, they sometimes offer the high end Sony players or whatever, that I wouldn't bother with. You're forced to go online to buy anything else, and you're generally better served doing that, since the prices are tons better online anyway. I haven't seen any players yet that take a 1TB SD card.
Nice review. I used to have an old thumb mp3 player Phillips SA1278 ( 512mb) , i tried to change the battery because it did turn on...but battery was ok , at that point my electronic skills ended. I want to buy another for my son (9y) he likes music and FM radio ( budget
If you just want a basic but reliable and cheap mp3 player I'd suggest checking out the sandisk clip models. They have a very good price to functionality ratio and especially the sports models are quite sturdy. You can often find them for sale new on ebay for well under $50.
I have a few phillips mp3 players and they are ok but the build quality is worse than sandisk players (and they tend to cost more for less feature imo).
Can you update that MP3 player and how can you get TH-cam app on this to where you can watch TH-cam on this? That's the main thing I want it for is watching TH-cam videos can anybody help thank you
For me I've given up with the crappy choice of players under £400 so I've just purchased a Sony Experia 10 IV with a 512GB micro sd card and it has a great 5000mAh battery and runs android 12. for a £279 like new refurb. And I get to run a nice player like musicolet.
@@sjm4306 cool. Is there an app you suggest? I've always have and use iPhones and iPads, so I'm familiar with iTunes and creating playlists there. I look forward to having a simple plug 'n play android-type music player for a change.
There are a few android app repositories online you can download apks from (just gotta be careful that you trust the site as there is a risk to download virus' there). Another option I use is I just install the app from the google play store on my phone and use an apk backup app to extract the apk from my phone. Then I just copy it off my phone and onto whatever device I want to install that app onto. This is the safest option, but requires more steps.
I couldn't get usb otg to work, so out of the box the short answer is no. But it should be possible to root and try to manually enable usb otg so long answer is maybe.
Can you download unknown apps from the internet like if there are option to do that like when you download something off the internet for an Android device you got to click unknown option
That's a function of whatever music player app you install (has nothing to do with the device). I'm pretty sure the app I use, doubletwist, does gapless.
Unless samsung music requires a newer version of android or some very specific samsung services tied to their devices I dont see why you couldn't install it on the pecsu.
Easy way would just be to use android's built in parent mode or if that doesn't block specific things you want then there are 3rd party apps that can disable or block/limit internet access to specific apps. I personally dont use any of these features so I cant give specific instructions unfortunately but I know it's possible.
So you can install youtube but without google play services set up correctly it will open but wont let you actually use the app. A popup comes up with only the option to close the app. I haven't found a way to get it working yet. On the otherhand opening youtube.com in the browser works.
I actually cant directly tell as the trick of clicking the os build number in settings to access developer options to check the bluetooth configuration doesn't work unfortunately. Judging by ear though, connecting to my sony xm3's sounds like it's defaulting to sbc and not connecting in apt-x.
That's what I'm looking for too were you ever able to get an answer or figure out something about TH-cam? Because I want to watch TH-cam videos on this I love the MP3 player it's fucking awesome but I want to be able to watch TH-cam and use TH-cam so were you able to figure it out? Please answer
Yes and no, you will have to manually install update apks downloaded from online and since it's an older version of android there's no guarantee all future apps will install
Any music player that has nothing to do with google, android, app store, amazon, calculator, online account (such as spotify, itunes...)? Just a device with high battery capacity, blue tooth, waterproof (preferably), playlist... Like a k7 player that didn't have a calculator or a phone. Otherwise, I can always buy a cheap used android phone from ebay.
Hard to find a player that hits all of your requirements and isn't android. Not many dedicated mp3 players are still made that have their own proprietary os and have higher end features beyond those cheap sansa clip style models. If you really dont want apps just disable or dont use them even on an android device.
Yes it can use it, but probably not to the full speed an a2 card is specced to (the limitation would probably be the speed of the connection between the sd card slot and the cpu in this case).
NOTHING SAID to us regarding adding apps, most likely due to your ASSUMING we already know everything you do. Thanks for nothing that a ton of us want/need to know. lol A kid accidentally deleted the KINDLE app; no clue how to reinstall.
Download kindle app apk onto internal memory, open file browser, click kindle app apk to install, follow onscreen directions, it's as easy as that. This runs standard android, if you need step by step directions you can easily search for a tutorial video. This is a review of this specific product, not a tutorial or how-to video.
Pretty much any modern android device will play wav's. This is an android device, file compatibility is really up to whatever app you are using. Basically if you use a music app that is compatible with wav files then this will play wav files.
I'm sure you could compile a newer version of android and manually install but given the hardware I expect that there could be performance issues making it a moot point.
Phones stopped using sd cards for people who have collected large amounts music and spent countless hours setting up playlists and don’t have time, or care to do it over again on Spotify, or whatever else. So yes, those people are going back to MP3 players.
It really depends on the size of your music library and if you want to listen to lossless or compressed music. In general I'd suggest at least a 64GB card (class 10 or higher for speed). Honestly though given how cheap cards are nowadays you might as well just get a 128 or 256gb card as the price difference will literally be like $10.
I got the player in the mail today and so far I have to say it's got a reminiscent design of a Microsoft zune. Redesigned with Android it reminds me alot of a zune. It works good and I like how it also has android. The sound volume could use work and the speaker isn't very good but hey it works. 😉
sjm4306 Need recomendations on APPs that I can download using the P5S Browser or anything I can do to improve the sound and volume quality of the music.
@@sjm4306 Finally I could install double twist! And you were absolutely right! Its EQ improved the sound incredibly and is way easier to use than those already in the player. And I could transfer all my Itunes music. My heart is really content! Thanks again!
If your music is unprotected then yes you can drag music from itunes into the usb drive window for this mp3 player. It wont directly sync inside of itunes of course though (apple would never allow a non-ipod/iphone to do so).

@@sjm4306 great and it will update like as if it was from playstore
Yes and no, you will have to manually install update apks downloaded from online and since it's an older version of android there's no guarantee all future apps will install
Its support display out?
Nope, even most higher end smartphones don't do video out over usb-c yet, don't expect to see a high end feature like that on a sub $100 mp3 player.
Any music player that has nothing to do with google, android, app store, amazon, calculator, online account (such as spotify, itunes...)? Just a device with high battery capacity, blue tooth, waterproof (preferably), playlist... Like a k7 player that didn't have a calculator or a phone.
Otherwise, I can always buy a cheap used android phone from ebay.
Hard to find a player that hits all of your requirements and isn't android. Not many dedicated mp3 players are still made that have their own proprietary os and have higher end features beyond those cheap sansa clip style models. If you really dont want apps just disable or dont use them even on an android device.
can it use a A2 1TB micro sd card?
Yes it can use it, but probably not to the full speed an a2 card is specced to (the limitation would probably be the speed of the connection between the sd card slot and the cpu in this case).
@@sjm4306 Mk thanks man hey if you learn of any special new mp3/mp4 players let me know
NOTHING SAID to us regarding adding apps, most likely due to your ASSUMING we already know everything you do. Thanks for nothing that a ton of us want/need to know. lol
A kid accidentally deleted the KINDLE app; no clue how to reinstall.
Download kindle app apk onto internal memory, open file browser, click kindle app apk to install, follow onscreen directions, it's as easy as that. This runs standard android, if you need step by step directions you can easily search for a tutorial video. This is a review of this specific product, not a tutorial or how-to video.
Is .wav file working?
Pretty much any modern android device will play wav's. This is an android device, file compatibility is really up to whatever app you are using. Basically if you use a music app that is compatible with wav files then this will play wav files.
Yes memory card
Would be good if wasn't running a ridiculously old version of android.
I'm sure you could compile a newer version of android and manually install but given the hardware I expect that there could be performance issues making it a moot point.
First and nice
No way I'm not going to buy it
And you dont have to if you dont want to lol. I'm not here to force anyone to buy anything, only if they really want to.
People are going back to np3 players because we feel so attached to our phones
Plus playing music on my phone kills the battery which is rather have an mp3 for music
Phones stopped using sd cards for people who have collected large amounts music and spent countless hours setting up playlists and don’t have time, or care to do it over again on Spotify, or whatever else. So yes, those people are going back to MP3 players.
24:38 that video is in Turkish wtf lol
The joys of random youtube recommendations
sjm4306 Any recomendations on which type and size (Gb) of SD Card I should get for My Pecsu P5S?
It really depends on the size of your music library and if you want to listen to lossless or compressed music. In general I'd suggest at least a 64GB card (class 10 or higher for speed). Honestly though given how cheap cards are nowadays you might as well just get a 128 or 256gb card as the price difference will literally be like $10.
@@sjm4306 Great! Thanks Again!
This reminds me of a zune but better
I've actually never used a zune, I'll have to pick one up to play with
@@sjm4306 I liked the design of this so I picked one up on Amazon for 76 bucks
It's a solid android music player that's not too expensive but also not cheap feeling in the hand either. I use mine nearly daily at work.
@@sjm4306 I'm definitely excited I'll have to give it a try. Maybe have a music player for my car.
I got the player in the mail today and so far I have to say it's got a reminiscent design of a Microsoft zune. Redesigned with Android it reminds me alot of a zune. It works good and I like how it also has android. The sound volume could use work and the speaker isn't very good but hey it works. 😉
sjm4306 Need recomendations on APPs that I can download using the P5S Browser or anything I can do to improve the sound and volume quality of the music.
You can try a music player app like doubletwist that allows you to manually adjust a multiband equalizer.
@@sjm4306 Great! I'll try that. Thanks....
@@sjm4306 Finally I could install double twist! And you were absolutely right! Its EQ improved the sound incredibly and is way easier to use than those already in the player. And I could transfer all my Itunes music. My heart is really content! Thanks again!
Happy to hear!
this can be used for itunes?
If your music is unprotected then yes you can drag music from itunes into the usb drive window for this mp3 player. It wont directly sync inside of itunes of course though (apple would never allow a non-ipod/iphone to do so).
